England edged to an 82-run lead at lunch on the fourth day of a fascinating second Test against the West Indies at Headingley on Monday, reaching 4-251 in their second innings and losing just skipper Joe Root in the opening session.
The outcome of the Test could well depend on the afternoon session and whether England can go on to build a lead that will leave the West Indies under pressure.
The Windies made 427 in reply to England's first innings total of 258.
With the second new ball available straight after lunch, however, the Windies will hope they can get through the England middle order quickly and give themselves a realistic target to reach to level the three-Test series.
Root, who had batted patiently to reach 72, was caught at gully by Shai Hope who grabbed the ball at the second attempt, after the England captain was unable to keep down a sharply rising delivery from Shannon Gabriel.
England will resume with Dawid Malan on 41 and Ben Stokes on 29.
England hammered the Windies in the opening Test in Birmingham by an innings and 209 runs.
